I have been looking at 18 or 20" wheels for my Max but when I do a tire search I am not seeing any D or E load ratings for any of the tires available. I know the new fords have 18 and 20" wheel options from the factory on their heavy duty trucks now. Those tires have to be load rated D or E. What are you guys running on your 18 and 20" equiped trucks? Are they load rated for heavy towing? I have been looking at 275/65/18 285/60/18 & 275/60/20:(

I am currently running the Goodyear Wrangler ATS tire on my GMC. 3700# load range for singles. The Avon tech ST is also available in a 275 60 R 20 all season load range E tire.
I would look at mickey thompson tires...they have a new line, like the "ATZ" that are D and E rated. I'm thinking about new treads myself.

I've ran Nitto Terra Grapplers and BFGoodrich All Terrains for the 18" rim, both were load range D IIRC

The following come in at least D, some E:
BFG AT 285/65/18
Toyo AT 285/60/18
Nitto Grappler 285/60/18
Nitto Dune Grappler 285/65/18
I've been looking too. I'm currently running C load range Kuhmo's off my old gasser and am chewing them up quickly. I like the Toyos and have heard good things about them. My brother had a set of 305/50/20 on his and they were good.

My Nitto LT325/60R20's are D rated.
